Overview of Robust Design, Propagation of Error, and Tolerance Analysis


presented by Patrick Whitcomb

Response surface methods (RSM) can lead you to the peak of process performance. In this advanced-level webinar, Stat-Ease Consultant Pat Whitcomb discusses robust design, propagation of error, and tolerance analysis. Propagation of error (POE) accounts for variation transmitted from deviations in factor levels. It finds the flats—high plateaus or broad valleys of response, whichever direction one wants to go—maximum or minimum; respectively. Tolerance analysis drills down to the variation of individual units, thus facilitating improvement of process capability.

If you are working to make your system more robust, this webinar is for you! It will be especially valuable to those involved in Design for Six Sigma (DFSS).
